Daffodils and Posies

I have to post something spring-like today. After weeks of pleasant temperatures, some days even in the 70s - which, for Connecticut in March is pretty good - we have suddenly had snow. Six inches of the stuff. A little is okay in December or January, but is absolutely NOT allowed in April. So, I'm feeling as if I'm in a bit of a time warp and I want to bring spring back as quickly as possible. I figured posting some little flower pieces might help.

So here they are. I tried my hand at little daffodils for the first time, and am now wondering why I haven't made these before. They are a pretty basic design, but cute and cheerful, just like the daffodils that are trying to pop back up through the snow in my yard.

I also decided to make a couple of very simple Skinner blend pendants. I decorated them with little flower clusters to add a spring feel.

About Me

Art and creativity are an important part of my life. I love making things - and I love to teach. I feel so fortunate to have found mediums which allow me to do both! I enjoy working in beadweaving, PMC, polymer and porcelain, though recently polymer and beadweaving have "taken over" my time and attention.
If you have questions or would like to contact me, drop me a line: kyfoss@comcast.net I'd love to hear from you.
